Its published in 2021. SKC wanted books which are not published latter. Can you tell me what this book brings into light which Sat Charitra did not bring?
I have had another book written on Sai Baba - which also is research book - which mentions Sai Bab was born to a Brahmin Family who gave away boy. he learned from both hindu and sufi saint. But I am not sure about its research. I use Sai Charitra as authentic book to reflect upon because it was written by a close devotee and is actually collection of random stories from Sai baba's life.
Do you know he had his ears pierced as they were done by Hindu brahmins? He was not circumcised as Muslim would. And he kept a Dhuni fire burning continuously and meditated upon? Or he expounded on Geeta's Sanskrit Shloka - that too chosen by devotees and at random?
Lives of Guru Nanak, Ramkrishna Paramhansa, Sai Baba, Mahaavatar babaji, Paramhansa Yogananada, Ramana Maharishi and even Sri M - tell you that Sadhus in true sense are unattached with Names and forms. But start seeing Ultimate Reality , Paramatma holistically. Saadh ki Jaat na poochiye pooch lijiye gyan. Its for a reason give Name, Caste and attire when he ordains Sadhu hood journey.
Worship him if you want. No Hindu deity can possibly be born as late as 1800's.
Also, if you consider him to be a Guru, that's fine. Don't place him alongside other Deities.
